David Rothkopf joins Joanna Coles to delve into another extraordinary week in Trump world, from mounting questions over the president’s handling of Iran and a deepening foreign policy crisis to allegations of corruption, political dysfunction, and the stunning collapse of public confidence reflected in new polling. They dive into RFK Jr.’s combative CNN appearance, the fallout surrounding embattled Congressman Max Miller, the mystery of Mitch McConnell’s extended absence, the latest twists in Todd Blanche’s confirmation battle, and the growing cracks inside the MAGA movement as Tucker Carlson, Laura Loomer, and JD Vance collide. Plus, they examine Trump’s latest Truth Social spectacle, his self-proclaimed golf triumph, and why the hosts argue the chaos surrounding his administration is only accelerating as the midterms draw closer.
